    Even if I had convict ancestry, I wouldn’t be ashamed of it. As far as I’m concerned, the real criminals back in those days weren’t twelve-year-old boys nicking a loaf of bread or a pair of socks to ward off hunger and blisters. No, it was those who exploited them; keeping the battler in the gutter while they sat around in their manors, sipping tea and admiring portraits of their toffee-nosed great grandfathers.

    I write because I have stories to tell that have never been told before. I want to share these stories with you. I want to keep you up at night. I want to take you by the hand and lead you into the tunnels. Then I'll let go, because I want you to lose yourself for a while.
